Why by Derivakat

It was released on May 16, 2021

Fun Fact: Why is a song created by Derivakat, and is inspired by the lore of the Dream SMP. The song is about Wilbur, or more commonly referred to as Ghostbur. Unlike Blue, the song takes a more darker and sadder approach, that refers to the past, and what’s happened. "“Why” conveys the feelings of intense loss and hopeless despair in the wake of tragedy. […] I’ve tried to tackle the different ways ppl respond or react to war on the smp, whether they are the initiators, aggregators, bystanders, or victims of it" -Derivakat via twitter

Queen of Nothing by The Crane Wives

It was released on October 14, 2020

Fun Fact: "Queen of Nothing" by The Crane Wives appears to explore themes of feeling trapped, a longing for freedom, and the pressure of expectations. The line "Isn't this what you wanted?" implies that they may have pursued a path or made choices that have led to their current state. Time feels like it's running out, and there is a sense of urgency to "finish what you started." The mention of the "Queen of nothing" with a "heavy crown" suggests a feeling of being burdened by responsibilities and expectations, despite lacking fulfillment or purpose.

Song #156

Radio Ga Ga by Queen (specifically the Live Aid version because that was today)

It was released in 1984 in the album The Works, this recording however was recorded on July 13, 1985

Fun fact: Queen played a shorter, up-tempo version of "Radio Ga Ga" during this concert at Wembley Stadium, where Queen's "show-stealing performance" had 72,000 people clapping in unison.

"I remember thinking 'oh great, they've picked it up' and then I thought 'this is not a Queen audience'. This is a general audience who've bought tickets before they even knew we were on the bill. And they all did it. How did they know? Nobody told them to do it."

—Brian May on the audience participation in clapping to "Radio Ga Ga" at Live Aid.
